Hélène C Extremely happy with the buffet menu. The plant-based options were exquisite. The area booked for us for my milestone birthday was lovely. The fireplace was a nice touch. Thank you so much!

Kai Hunter Ali is always utterly charming and a wonderful host. Ali ably leads the front of house team. Hussain, Anika, Maisha, Malik and Ramisa are all so lovely, friendly and attentive; they all work so hard to make your experience magical and special. The food is absolutely delicious. The wine list is extensive and you can always find a bottle to complement your food choices. We thoroughly and highly recommend Malik’s. Be patient if they are just, they will attend to you and your needs. Support this amazing institution and enjoy your meal/s. Just make sure there is always a table for two available for my wife and I.

john storrie We have always had great tasty food from the Maidenhead Fat Buddha and our first delivery was on the 28th for a party of 9. I ordered on the web app and requested a 7pm delivery. The food arrived hot and on time, great service & delivery. All of our party had ordered very different starters, mains and vegetable dishes. We had a superb feast and everybody was well fed with great tasting food. Thanks to all the FB team, front of house, back of house and the delivery team, our experience was excellent!

Henry What makes a good restaurant? Clearly food will feature somewhere on your list and in the case of The Waterside this takes the form of classic French cooking. Nothing is “deconstructed” or designed to surprise. You know exactly what you’re getting from the menu and if you’ve visited previously you probably even know what you’re going to order before you arrive. Nothing is intended to shock. Far too many restaurants at all levels feature a talented kitchen team let down by their front of house. From the moment you arrive here everyone knows what they are doing and wants to make your visit as enjoyable as they possibly can. They’re not trying to trip you up, you don’t have to be fluent in gastronomy or know anything about malolactic fermentation. The sommelier is there to help, not to test. No one is judging you although I’d be lying if said we didn’t people watch our fellow diners a little. You are family when dining at The Waterside, it’s not in any way stuffy or starched. That’s not to suggest service is casual, seamless would be my best description with teams assembling when required to reveal your next course before melting away again to leave you to your conversation. The Waterside is a happy place. My memory of the venue is that it’s a bit dated, the phrase “Chinese restaurant” was used as we drove there but things have quietly evolved. It’s actually quite smart these days. The bathrooms are modern and fresh, the soft furnishings crisp and comforting with a nod to the history of the venue. Let us not forget this is an institution woven into the fabric of British restaurant history.

Helen Arapi A lovely Toby carvery we found on a trip to Maidenhead. Really lovely atmosphere and layout. We had a lovely lady called Barbara who was so friendly and helpful to us and all the guests. I can see why she had so many regular customers she just had a natural way with people. Will definitely come back.

Michael Finnigan Ist time visiting yesterday, we had the 3 course set menu which was very good value for £25. Cosy little pub, great service as well. Sticky toffee pudding was amazing.
